Calcite with Goethite Inclusions and
Quartz - $16 Santa Eulalia Mining District, Aquiles Serdán Municipality, Chihuahua, Mexico Cabinet - 11.9 x 4.2 x 3.5 cm (4.7 x1.7 x 1.4 inches) 84 grams (0.19 pounds) Specimen status: Available Send an email with specimen number to order An elongated calcite specimen with
curiously irregular shape and matte, dark grey to black
color (probably goethite inclusions; actual color is
darker than my lousy photos suggest). The colorless
material is naturally corroded quartz. Mindat has 458 photos of calcite from Santa
Eulalia with a wide variety of forms and colors,
but nothing like this oddball.
